Subject: Buck?

I just want your opinions guys.
After reading the bio's on ODST, i was wondering..
is it possible for the guy with the combat knife, to be Buck from odst?
Apparently, he participated in harvest and reach.
And i looked at the picture, and thought, hmmmm...
Discuss.

I hunt for the Prophet of Contentment, the San 'Shyumm that murdered my son, and stole his birthright, his Energy Sword. They call our species Heretics. They claim to all that our tongues sting, our words a vile poison that feeds on the unworthy. I have seen the true face of Heresy. The head of a gallant warrior lay on the ground. His neck scorched and blistered, scarred by his own blade. I shall retrieve the weapon, and drive it through that bastard's heart! Punishment for his sins is nigh.

Nahh, all 5 of those are Spartans for sure. None of the 5 there are ODSTs.

Its not entirely impossible for some of them to be odst,
Or, for all we know, they might not be odst there at all, the might just be regular marines.
Theres no conformation, that the are all spartans.
Not sayings its entirely impossible for them to be spartans.
BUT, im just sharing my theories :).

well as you said, it is POSSIBLE he is one of them. but it's also EXTREMELY unlikely...I mean, really. extremely unlikely... why have an ODST instead of a spartan on Reach when you know the backstory, huh?

Joe Staten confirmed that Spartans will be featured in the game, and considering that every silhouette featured on the banner fits into a feature of several individual Spartans, I think it's unlikely any of them are ODST's.

Dude I don't care and my grammer is perfect.I used "Big", as you recall it to mak is specific."to not do...",is incorrect beause "do" is present tense/perfect(or future) when it was a past tense.

None of which feature Buck. This could be a good way to see what happened on Reach from another perspective.

I think it would be great to have Buck, he was obviously disturbed by what he saw on Reach.

[SPOILER]
Like on Coastal Highway, when he see's the carrier glassing the city he just screams about how it's Reach all over again.
[SPOILER]

I think he would be a fun perspective to play from.

I'd love for Buck to be in Reach (like Sgt. Johnson is in 2 and 3). However, he's not in the banner - Buck wasn't a Spartan, and everyone in the banner is.

  • 09.28.2009 1:37 PM PDT

does anyone know what was Buck doing in reach?

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

Nathan Fillion has hinted that he'd love to be involved in future Halo games. And he got exclusive access to Halo: Reach at one point.

Also, Nathan filled the character in perfectly. I'd love to see the ODST cast return.

I don't think we've seen the last of Buck.

  • 09.28.2009 1:55 PM PDT

You honestly believe that person is Buck... Wow, just because he was on Reach and the "figure" is wielding a knife, you think he's Buck. The guy in the middle has the same armor as your Buck, so are you saying that both of them are ODSTs? I hope not because Bungie would've destroyed the game if they would've done that.

Over imagination. Not good, not good at all.
